It was an accident that Hu Qingyu met Kou Yan a few years ago.At that time, he was plotted against by his enemies and temporarily unable to use spiritual power.It was Kou Yan who took him in and let him escape from the pursuers.It can be said that Kou Yan can also be regarded as Hu Qingyu's benefactor.Later, Hu Qingyu took over the land for Kou Yan out of gratitude.

However, what Hu Qingyu didn't expect was that.This piece of land is more complicated than he imagined.With his ability at the time, he could only use formations to temporarily seal that thing.What she didn't expect was that he discovered that the opportunity of his nephew Hu Junhan was also related to this place.

Since the hexagrams were too vague, he could only speculate that Hu Junhan would either benefit from this incident, or at least be able to maintain his original status.In short, it is beneficial and harmless.How could Hu Qingyu give up this opportunity.That's why he called Hu Junhan over.Hu Junhan is currently unaware of all this.Hu Qingyu didn't want to tell the truth, but just waited and watched.

Turning his thoughts back to the drawings drawn by Tang Shenghao, Hu Qingyu said: "The location of the two murders was carefully planned by the murderer."

Ke Zhenshan, who was not as familiar with Hu Qingyu's matchups, asked, "How?"

"The formation I set up is improved from the Bagua formation. It is basically divided into eight gates: opening gate, rest gate, life gate, injury gate, Du gate, scene gate, death gate, and shock gate. If someone wants to enter the formation and break the formation , you have to enter through these doors. It’s okay to enter the Sanji Gate, but if you unfortunately choose the Sanji Gate, the intruder will ask for more blessings.” Hu Qingyu explained.

"However," Hu Qingyu pointed to the blueprint and said, "For those who understand the formation method, breaking the formation from the inside after entering the formation is less labor-intensive, but it is more risky. Another method of breaking the formation, Just like a murderer, cooperate inside and outside to break through."

He Ruoxin grasped the key point: "Cooperate internally and externally?"

Hu Qingyu glanced at him and said: "There is not one person who destroyed the formation, but two. One is inside the formation, and the other is outside the formation."

"Who is it that you sealed in the formation..." He Ruoxin asked.

"A ghost cultivator." Hu Qingyu replied.

"Its cultivation level?" A ghost cultivator who can seal Hu Qingyu instead of subduing it directly must have a high level of cultivation.

"A few years ago it was almost at the level of ghost generals."

"Ghost general!" He Ruoxin didn't know the correspondence between ghost cultivators and spiritual cultivators, but that didn't mean Ke Zhenshan didn't understand.The ghost general is comparable to a spiritual cultivator in the Jindan stage, and he can definitely kill everyone present in an instant.Even if the ghost cultivator sealed by Hu Qingyu has not reached the level of ghost general, he should not be underestimated.

"Qingyu, how did you seal it?" Ke Zhenshan asked.

No wonder Ke Zhenshan had such doubts.Back then, Hu Qingyu's cultivation was only in the middle stage of Yuye, how could it be possible to compare with ghost cultivators at the level of ghost generals, and even seal him?

"It seems to be locked by something and can only move within a certain range. But he is very possessive of that area and doesn't let anyone get close. If it wasn't not bloodthirsty, it would have killed these few people long ago. "Hu Qingyu said after recalling the situation at that time.

But in his heart, Hu Qingyu thought: At that time, he was setting up the formation around it.At that time, Guixiu seemed to have acquiesced in his behavior and did not stop him.So Hu Qingyu guessed that the ghost cultivator might be guarding something.

But it was impossible for him to tell Ke Zhenshan about this.The thing that can be guarded by the ghost general is probably a treasure. Who can guarantee that Ke Zhenshan will not be tempted by the treasure and kill him?After all, Ke Zhenshan and him come from different sects.Although their Qingyun concept has always ignored world affairs, it is always right to be careful.

Moreover, he also guessed that Jun Han's chance may be this treasure, so it is even more impossible for outsiders to know.

"Master Uncle Qingyu said just now that he cooperated internally and externally. Could it be that the ghost cultivator wanted to break through?" Duan Changhua brought the topic back to the murder case.

"I'm afraid it can't wait." Hu Qingyu murmured softly.

"Uncle Master?"

"Huh?" Hu Qingyu retracted the thoughts just now, and said with a condensed face: "It probably seduced the people in the hotel. On the one hand, it used the evil spirit generated by the murder to consume the spiritual power of the formation, and on the other hand, it also used the souls of these people Tonic."

"Tonic with the soul?" Duan Changhua felt very evil when he heard these words.

"Yes, ghost cultivators can improve their own cultivation by devouring other people's souls." Hu Qingyu said, "Of course, since ghost cultivators exist and can be cultivated, they are allowed by the law of heaven. Therefore, ghost cultivators who practice in this way can also Because of this, cause and effect will accumulate, and it will be more difficult when crossing the catastrophe."

"Then why does it still do this? Isn't it afraid that it won't be able to survive the thunder disaster?" Duan Changhua asked puzzled.

Hu Qingyu snorted coldly and said, "Facing the temptation of rapid growth in strength, let alone ghost cultivators, how strong can spiritual cultivators be?"

makes sense.If spiritual cultivators could resist the temptation, there would be no evil cultivators.It's not that they don't know that the taboo method of increasing strength will make their cultivation more difficult, but they just lost themselves for a while.However, once you take the first step, it is impossible to turn back.

"The ghost cultivator is restricted by my formation, and the person it seduces will definitely not be too far away from the hotel. It may even be the people in the hotel." Hu Qingyu said: "The two people who died must have enmity with the murderer, or else Even if he is tempted by ghost cultivators, he will not kill people at will."

This is similar to what He Ruoxin and the others speculated before.At the same time, anyone who has a relationship with Fan Ling and Dong Shengan can be regarded as a member of the entire hotel staff.But if there is a direct connection, there are not many.It seems that who the murderer is still needs to be carefully investigated.

So, after the discussion was over, He Ruoxin and the other young people went to the hotel again.A list was made of all the hotel staff and regular guests, carefully looking for eligible people.This is a big project, and several people have been busy for a whole day to make the list.

According to the time and ability of committing the crime, there are about ten people on the list.Most are hotel workers.Since Kou Yan ordered the hotel to close for a few days, the hotel is now in a depression.Only a few staff members on duty remain.

There's no way, none of them are familiar with the people on the list, so they have to ask the manager.In order not to leak information, Tang Shenghao did not show the list to Manager Si.Instead, he called the manager of the company under the name of the situation. He didn't target anyone, but asked about everything.Just, occasionally, casually mentioning people on the list.

Although the manager was puzzled as to why Tang Shenghao asked the questions he had asked before, he still answered them one by one.Unfortunately, after asking Manager Si, Tang Shenghao and the others still found nothing.

After sending off Manager Si, several people were unavoidably a little frustrated.Who is the murderer?

Duan Changhua worked hard all day, but he still got nothing in the end, which made him a little anxious. He pulled the list and said, "I think this Fang Han is the most suspicious! He died in Fan Ling's room as soon as he left. How could it be such a coincidence?"

Tang Shenghao shook his head and said, "Fang Han stayed at the Lombard Hotel for the first time, so he didn't have the motive to commit the crime. I think we should focus on the hotel staff."

"That's her, Li Jie." Duan Changhua stopped after flipping through a few articles and said, "Didn't you say that she pointed out that Fan Ling and Huang Haitian had an improper relationship? Maybe she was deliberately misleading us? Besides, here It says that she and Fan Ling came from the same village, but their relationship is very bad. She must have a motive for committing the crime!"

Tang Shenghao still shook his head and said, "The bruise on Fan Ling's arm was left by a man's hand. It's just that the murderer wore gloves, so we can't marry his DNA."

"Then who are you talking about?" Duan Changhua said irritably, throwing away the documents.

Tang Shenghao ignored the impatient Duan Changhua, but analyzed: "We still don't know how Fan Ling got the drugs. Maybe we should investigate along this line."

Hu Junhan thought for a while and said, "Could this person, the murderer, be Fan Ling's family? Could it be that Fan Ling got the drugs from him?"

"It's possible, but evidence is needed," Tang Shenghao said.

Tang Shenghao glanced at He Ruoxin who was standing aside with folded arms, deep in thought, and said, "Ruoxin, what do you think?"

He Ruoxin thought about his words and said, "Brother Hao, can you fully describe the characteristics of the murderer?"

"Okay." Tang Shenghao said: "First of all, the murderer should be a man. He was between 20 and 40 years old, with a height of about 175. He was familiar with the deceased Fan Ling and Dong Sheng'an. He was cautious, thoughtful, and of good quality. The terrain and various settings, such as the position of the camera..."

"Stop," He Ruoxin said, "I probably know who it is. Brother Hao, I need a piece of information."

"Which one?" Tang Shenghao said.

"that is……"

……

Even after the police and Kou Yan tried their best to block the news of the two consecutive murders, they were still known to the public.Now there are always some reporters guarding the entrance of the hotel, wanting to get news about the murder as soon as possible.Fortunately, the hotel is closed now, and the remaining staff have also been warned not to talk nonsense, so it is still peaceful now.

It's just that the more there is no positive news, the more the media and reporters' imaginations run wild, from normal murders to perverted murderers.Even the cases that appeared in the last century have been dug out by the media for comparative analysis.The whole city was in an uproar over the murder.

Kou Yan was a little worried about this.The murder not only affected Kou's reputation, but unfortunately, Kou's stock also had a downward trend during this period.

After handing over the investigation of the murderer to a few young people, Hu Qingyu and Ke Zhenshan prepared some items to deal with ghost cultivators.Although Ke Zhenshan replenished spiritual power for the formation, it was only a matter of time before the formation was destroyed by the ghost cultivator.What Hu Qingyu meant was to solve this matter thoroughly, so as not to leave any hidden dangers.
